The Clark Family of Princeton Battlefield
As part of the First Sunday Lecture Series at Peachfield, our staff will welcome William Krakower of the Princeton Battlefield State Park, who will share the history of Princeton’s Clarke family and their legacy in the state. Built in 1772, in the middle of what was then a 200-acre farm, the historic Clarke House is in outward appearance simply a white clapboard farm house. This historic building is central to the Battle of Princeton, fought on January 3rd, 1777, between the Continental Army under the command of General George Washington and British Crown forces. The Clarkes, a third-generation Quaker family of the Stony Brook Quaker Settlement, turned the house into a field hospital after the battle, taking in both British and American wounded.
